📦

Shipping made simple

Merit-based promotion

The better you serve customers, the harder we push your products. Top-rated sellers are featured in our ads and on the front page.

What we look for

What makes a qualified afrolibsi seller

afrolibsi is a curated marketplace, not an open bazaar. We hand-pick makers who can consistently delight diaspora customers. Here is the bar we look for.

Authentic quality craftsmanship

Clean, durable weaving and finishing you'd be proud to send abroad — habesha kemis, netela, gabi and more.

Reliable capacity & on-time delivery

You can fulfil orders within the time you promise — again and again — without dropping quality.

Original, distinctive designs

Tibeb patterns and styles that stand out — not the same designs found in every market stall.

Strong customer service

You respond quickly, handle issues gracefully, and treat every diaspora order with care.

Honest communication

Truthful answers about materials, sizing and timelines — trust is everything to buyers far from home.

Consistency over time

You hold the same high standard on order #100 as on order #1.

Rated on performance

The best sellers sell the most

Every afrolibsi seller earns a performance rating from real customer orders — product quality, on-time delivery, customer satisfaction and low returns. Your rating decides how much we promote you.

More stars → more visibility → more sales
New seller
Standard placement while you build your track record.
Rising seller
Growing visibility and more orders as your rating climbs.
Top SellerFeatured
Featured in our paid ads and on the front page — the most orders and the highest income.

This is a meritocracy. Serve your customers well and afrolibsi grows your sales for you — no favouritism, no upfront fees. The higher your rating, the more we sell for you.
